Dave's Terrain Factory

A few pictures of the Russell Clan hard at work on the boards needed for Tarawa. Done for CD3, the ground area has been slightly up-scaled in order to include all of the main features








More progress as the pictures arrive

    Good on Dave for resorting to slave labour. The boards look great.

    Extremely jalous! Thanks for the inspiration for my own pacific gaming terrain!

    What are the dimentions of the table if possible in cm?

    Exploiting child labour for wargaming purposes? Splendid idea.

    Kids get nice long summer holidays, you spend most of your time entertaining them, let them 'pay their way' for a day I say! Great stuff! Should be an exciting campaign.

    Cheers T, though Dave has considerably more assets to exploit than I (1 away at uni)

    UB: we added about 12-15" of depth, we have done this successfully before as it helps off-set the footprints of BUAs, roads etc and the areas they occupy at an inch to 50yrd ground scale, if you know what I mean?

    Epic in scale and industrial factory process

    Makes my cottage industry offerings quite er, small

    Well done I like the family "contributing" at least they are earning their pocket and presents money this Xmas
